The Best Cafes in Southwick, Hampshire, United Kingdom (2025)

Visited this absolute gem of a coffee shop for the first time the other day. We turned up a little early and the staff let us sit inside until 10am. Ordered decaf tea for two and 2 doorstop sarnies which where so yummy. Read really fresh and lots of filling! They even filled up the teapot with hot water for us! Staff where super sweet and friendly and the place was very clean and inviting. Attached to a super quaint post office too. Parking on the road outside and the surround village with gorgeous too. Will definitely come back! Esp in the summer as would love to sit in the garden.

Lovely quaint place. Quirky tea rooms in the lovely village of Southwick. They have a side entrance which leads to a sunny garden with benches. Inside is full of the local history and has ample tables in a warm dining area. Menu is great. Food is amazing. Service with a smile and come to your table. If you need the toilet, you need to walk to the back of the tea rooms, through some doors into the post office/shop and use them... it's different but quirky. The sandwiches are huge! Thick doorstop bread with lots of filling, served with a lovely salad with a french dressing and a big handful of salted crisps. It is super big so unless you have a big appetite, I suggest you share 😆 Lots of cake although I didn't try any. Good selection of coffees and tea. Will try more of the menu if I can take myself away from the Bacon, Brie and Cranberry sandwich 🤗 Dogs are welcome inside and out which is great 👍🏼 We had - Pot of tea for 2 2 x Bacon brie and cranberry sandwiches on white bread Hubby had a caramel shortbread slice £21 which was a great price for the volume of food we had! Would definitely recommend 👌🏼

First visit to this little tea room in Southwick and what a pleasant surprise! On a sunny afternoon there was plenty of outside seating at picnic benches in the garden. We sat inside and there was lots of wartime memorabilia decorating the tea room. Great looking afternoon tea which several tables were enjoying. We had a tea cake and baked Camembert. Large flat white available too which makes a nice change. Great place and great food - just one request though….. please sort out the squeaky kitchen door!!

What a gem of a tearoom. Lovely choice of food, excellent quality, quantity, and in my mind good value for money. Our waitress was lovely and welcoming and service was very efficient especially as they were super busy both inside and out. Can't wait to return. Word to the wise though, it is best to book if you want to guarantee yourself a table, as clearly it is a very, very popular eatery.
